Explainability of AI models is crucial for operationalizing AI, and data integration is the key to success, especially with data living in hybrid-cloud, multi-cloud, and multiple formats. The remote execution engine allows for flexibility in deploying data integration jobs in any geography or VPC. This deployment model has also unlocked new use cases for data integration such as hybrid cloud data integration and edge computing data processing. This approach empowers organizations to maximize the potential of their data while minimizing risk and costs. IBM’s DataStage-aaS Anywhere provides a solution for this robust deployment model, offering ultimate deployment flexibility and enabling data pipelines to be executed wherever the data resides.
